I remember seeing a clip on botchamania with Cole and Foley commenting on a real cruddy match. Kinda like MST3K. What was the context of it?

It may have been something from the 1980 Shea Stadium show, which they did new commentary for a while back.

I took a picture with Jerry Lynn once when I was about 18. He signed it afterwards, which was awful nice, considering I had literally just dropped the X Division title on his foot (which, no poo poo, he sold, albeit jokingly).

The lesson here is Jerry Lynn is an unfailingly nice guy.

Is that you, little bro? Because my brother did the exact same thing with the same title. And yes, Jerry Lynn is an amazingly nice dude.

Has there been any dirtsheet talk about Cody Rhodes at all? I feel like he's taken a huge step back in his career since he was wearing the mask.

I haven't heard anything. It's more indicative of how they treat mid-carders. I think he feuded with Big Show earlier this year, and that seems to be a big momentum-killer for almost anyone.

I came here to chew bubblegum and quote 'They Live', and I'm... at an impasse.
Cody was doing fine. Dashing took him out of the midcard, then the mask, then he lost the awesome feud with Randy Orton. He kept on as IC champion, lost it to Big Show, regained it, lost it to a returning Christian, and THEN he was off TV for 4 months.

He easily could've lost it to Big Show (or prior to their Wrestlemania feud) and gotten in after Sheamus/Bryan, even during the CM Punk/AJ/Kane thing, instead of 14 years of Del Rio can't beat Sheamus.

After his feud with Orton it felt like he was the next guy they were going to bump up to the main event, but well. Stop-start pushes make fools of us all.

They have absurdly strict spoiler policies and stuff yeah, but the live show watching threads aren't really any worse than they are in here.

The discussion afterwards is generally much, much worse there though so theres that!

The Breaking Bad thread is incredible. During the show it is fine but 5 minutes after an episode ends it goes to complete poo poo.

There was once a multi-page argument in TVIV about whether the amount of road salt on a car seen in The Office was realistic for that time of the year in Scranton, Pennsylvania.

There was one point in the Lost threads where if you dared to post about the 10 second preview they showed during the credits, you would almost instantly get a month long probation for spoilers.

50% of TVIV posters are people who don't care about the show they're posting about and just watch to point out stupid poo poo like a .3 sec flash of a Coke logo or the realism of something that's entirely fictitious and sperg about it for 10 pages.
